Microsoft updates Excel, Word, PowerPoint and Sway on Windows 10

Microsoft has rolled out an update for its Excel, PowerPoint and Word Mobile apps, as well as Sway. The mobile-friendly office suite is perfect for those on their smartphone or Windows-powered tablet, opening up a world of easy document editing and presentation creation tools.

Unfortunately, as is the case these days, we're not entirely sure what has been included in this latest release for the apps, which bumps Excel, Word and PowerPoint up to version 17.6326.10211.0. You can either install these apps or check for updates by hitting the links below:

After the update for a moment my excel said i would need to purchase office 365 for editing. And files were opening in read only mode. I exited app, restarted my device and opened a new document. After which it showed upgraded and editing was back on

What kind of "just install Insider app on your old Lumia" answers are these? I have 920 on Insider and is buggy as hell. I have to wait 20sec just to open Messaging app. Outlook syncs after 10minuta on Manual push. So yes I am waiting for Official release..

office updates are normally not shown in windows update .. it auto downloads when it detects an update and installs it when office is not being used. You can manually check for updates from individual office apps from About section

Actually, when you enter "update" in the office-help it tells you that windows update (in win 10) will install office updates automatically as long as some little switch is on. Well it is, but still have to update manually.

All previous versions of Office get updates from Windows Update. But starting with Office 2016, I've noticed that it no longer behaves the same. To trigger a check for Office updates manually, the user must open any Office apps and select Accounts.

Hi @chaau Sway is an awesome storytelling app created by Microsoft. It allows users to easily create mixed-media web based content. Once a Sway is created it resides on the web and is easily shareable via a link. Sways are great in that that reflow to match any screen, phone, tablet or PC that they are on.
Sway also uses limited intelligence in that it takes the meticulous arranging of content out of the hands of the user. Via the "Storyboard" you place your content into the Sway and Sway does the rest. It's storytelling made easy. Combined with docs.com its an awesome tool for creating and publishing content!
Here, I interviewed Sway creator Chris Pratley and Program Manager Nathan Frieir last year. And wrote up a couple of Windows Central articles on Sway and docs.com. Check them out here! :-) : https://doc.co/MCMtxm
